Den næste journalist, ekspert eller meningsdanner der bruger udtrykket “kravle ned fra træet” burde straks kravle op i et træ og blive der, indtil man af egen drift kan finde på en mindre slidt metafor.

Vi har selv lukket Microsoft ind i hver en krog af uddannelsessystemet: Så hvad gør vi nu? | Version2 Mens tusindvis af danskere med initiativet Danmark Skifter opfordres til at tage kontrollen tilbage over deres digitale liv, bør danske uddannelsesinstitutioner stille sig selv det samme spørgsmål: Hv...

På opfordring fra Ingeniøren har jeg skrevet lidt om organisatorisk teknologiafhængighed i den danske uddannelsessektor.

Danske uddannelsesinstitutioner bør spørge sig selv:

Hvem kontrollerer egentlig vores digitale infrastruktur?

Why do we trade structural harms for individual convenience with generative AI?

We pursue “productivity gains” over IP theft, labor exploitation, environmental damage, and power consolidation.

Why are we treating this as reasonable rather than asking who benefits from framing it this way?

AI policies and enforcement are largely just theater.

Ironically, the real issue is hiding in plain sight: We have no idea what learning looks like anymore.

We won't know until we articulate what we actually value.

Only then can we begin to talk about AI implementation in higher education.

In 2026, higher ed institutions have an opportunity to lead by building AI adoption frameworks that don’t compromise on transparency, security, or ethical rigor.

Organizations that can demonstrate robust ethical frameworks won’t just be ticking compliance boxes - they’ll be trusted.

Enig. Hele uddannelsessystemet bør ideelt set tænkes i sammenhæng, men det er overordentligt svært i praksis.

Danmark Skifter Vær med i kampagnen. Vind fede præmier og bliv inspireret af andre, der allerede har taget et digitalt skift.

Danmark Skifter er et fremragende initiativ.

Jeg tror imidlertid også, at vi har behov for et initiativ målrettet erhverv (“Danmark Skifter Erhverv”), da der er brug for øget opmærksomhed i forhold til de logikker, vi temmelig blindt og naivt stadigvæk lader os styre af.

Mens FE advarer os om USA's teknologiske magt, fejrer regeringen Microsofts nye datacentre i Jylland | Radar Mens regeringen roser Microsofts datacenter-investeringer i Vestjylland, advarer Forsvarets Efterretningstjeneste mod den teknologiske magt bag dem. Noget vender helt på hovedet, mener tænketank.

Enhver dansk uddannelsesinstitution bør tænke sig godt om i forhold til de tvangsægteskaber, man for længst har indgået med Microsoft:

7 Points On Generative AI And Higher Education For 2026 As 2025 comes to an end, here's what I think we should continue to talk about in 2026

The habits students form with generative AI now will likely last a lifetime.
We’re not just debating assignment design or academic integrity policies. We’re shaping how people will think and solve problems for the next 40 years.

That should give us pause.

For years, I taught research writing and helped students refine research questions-- a messy, uncomfortable, often slow process. How is AI reshaping the questions we ask?
A pleasure to explore this topic with @jeppestricker.bsky.social for @unesco.org Ideas Lab www.unesco.org/en/articles/...

The disappearance of the unclear question AI speeds up research, but without friction, do students lose the deep thinking that turns bad questions into meaningful learning?

In our new piece for UNESCO, @victoriajane.bsky.social and I explore unclear questions in higher education.

In educational systems primarily built for output, the danger isn’t only that we stop thinking.

It’s also that we may forget how to begin at all.

The Synthetic Knowledge Crisis How AI is Reshaping Knowledge, and Not for the Better

"AI will, and should, have a place in higher education. But that place cannot be uncritical adoption, nor can it be framed purely in terms of productivity gains." I wanted to quote 75% of this article so just read the whole thing:

Leadership & Generative AI: Hard-Earned Lessons That Matter Actionable Advice for Higher Education Leaders in 2025

Do you know how to lead generative AI implementation in your higher education institution?

After two years of advising institutional leaders and delivering workshops, I've written a post with 15 tips that tend to be helpful to leaders.

The Silent Revolution: How AI is Slowly Rewiring Higher Education We're witnessing profound changes in how students think and learn, yet many of these transformations remain largely undiscussed in educational circles.

Generative AI quietly reshapes how students think, learn, and collaborate.

Yet most of the conversation remains silent on these issues.

7 red flags in AI and education:

-Over-reliance on AI for grading
-Chatbots dominating learning
-Endless AI prompt repositories
-Relying on AI for critical thinking
-Big tech educational strategies
-Assuming all education is scalable
-Blind faith in "tech solves all" evangelists

Stay critical!

Unsolicited Advice For Educational Leaders, In No Particular Order Mistakes I’ve made, and things I would like to have known sooner.

“This is one of the most refreshing, enjoyable takes on leadership I have read for years. It is funny and wise, and had me laughing at myself in enthusiastic agreement (and
embarrassment) with all of it.” - one reader said.

Higher education leadership - look at generative Al this way:

Teachers, students, admin staff and stakeholders are all paying attention now.

This is the moment to reinvent fundamental structures in teaching and assessment.

It doesn't get any better than this.

How Generative AI Diminishes Our Need For EdTech The Peculiar Case of Disruption in Education Technologies

Is EdTech as we know it becoming obsolete?

The most successful "edtech" might not be educational technology at all, but rather the innovative application of universal tools by those who understand education best - educators.

The Price of Frictionless Learning Preserving the Human Experience in the Future of Higher Education

Generative AI promises to make education more productive. To smooth out the bumps. To make learning "efficient."

The problem, of course, is that friction and processes in learning aren't inefficiencies, but the essence.

Critical Thinking in the Age of AI Why Domain Expertise Matters More Now, Not Less

When we talk about critical thinking in education, what do we actually mean?

jeppestricker.substack.com/p/critical-t...

Students can use generative AI to cheat. But more importantly, the technology can also train them not to think.

The real test of AI literacy will be whether students can maintain their drive to think for themselves in a world of cognitive shortcuts.

The future of education began two years ago.
